Comparisons of Patient Self-report, Neurologic Examination, and Functional Impairment in MS Neurol 56:934-937, Hoogervorst,E.L.J.,et al, 2001 See this aricle in Pubmed Article Abstract The good correlations between GNDS and both EDSS and MSFC were mainly due to the importance of spinal-cord-related neurologic functions in all three scoring systems. A marked discrepancy was found for the assessment of cognition between obj ective measurements and subjective complaints. Because patients' self-reporting correlates well with results of physical examination, GNDS can offer a valuable way to measure disease impact in MS. However, GNDS is not an adequate screen of cognitive dys function.
